Roasted Celeriac Steaks with Green Tahini Sauce

These yummy roasted celeriac steaks are served with a creamy green tahini sauce, toasted hazelnut, plus a side of sauteed mushrooms, spinach, and butter beans.

Celeriac is not always the most inspired veg but dressed with some zingy dressing, it really comes to life.

This is a vegan and gluten-free recipe that can be ready in less than 40 minutes.

How to cook celeriac steaks?

The aim is to cut the celeriac into four 2-cm [0.78″] thick slices/steaks. First, you will have to remove the knobbly bits and peel the celeriac. Depending on its shape, you will also have to cut out a bit of each end to have even slices. You can keep any offcuts to make soup and/ or vegetable stock.

You can fry the steaks either in a pan or roast them in the oven. I prefer to parboil the celeriac steaks first to shorten the cooking time. Once cooked, the steaks will be golden and soft.

Sauteed vegetables and green tahini sauce

These roasted celeriac steaks are served with sauteed mushrooms, spinach, and butter beans and topped with a creamy green tahini sauce. If you are short on time, you can gently saute the vegetables and prepare the green tahini sauce while the celeriac is cooking.

The hazelnuts can also be toasted at the same time.

For the green tahini sauce (inspired by Yotam Ottolenghi – of course!) I have used some parsley and basil. Season it to taste adding more or less lemon juice and /or maple syrup if needed

Once the celeriac steaks are cooked, serve them with the vegetable mixture. Top with green tahini sauce, extra capers, and toasted hazelnuts.

  • 400 g butter beans or cannellini beans

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 200°C/ 180 Fan. / Gas 6.
  • Peel the celeriac. Cut it into four 2-cm [0.78″] thick slices/steaks (keep the edges to make soup or vegetable stock)
  • Heat some salted water in a pan. Parboil the celeriac steaks for 10 mins until just tender.
  • In the meantime, heat some olive oil in a frying pan. Add finely chopped red onion and crushed garlic. Fry gently until soft. Add finely sliced mushrooms and dried thyme. Fry gently for 10 mins until they are cooked and have a nice golden brown colour. Add spinach and cook until wilted. Add the cannellini beans to the pan. Season to taste. Stir all together and keep warm. You can make the tahini sauce (see step 6) while the mushrooms are cooking.
  • When the celeriac steaks are done, pat them dry. Place them in a roasting tin. Drizzle with some olive oil and season with salt and pepper on both sides. Roast for 15-20 minutes until golden. In the meantime, blend together all the ingredients of the green tahini sauce (except for the capers, lemon juice and maple syrup). Transfer to a bowl. Add chopped capers. Season to taste adding more lemon juice and /or maple syrup.
  • Toast hazelnuts in a pan. Set aside.
  • Serve the celeriac steaks with the vegetables. Top with green tahini sauce, extra capers and toasted hazelnuts.
